I see  from a browse of the archives that at least one list member tried  a
performance chip (022D) in the Digifant ECU. Then there is  this:

Anyone  have experience with this one?



I have a performance chip in the ECU of my '87  Westy with Boston Bob's Big
Valve engine.  Can't say if this chip is the  same.  It definitely is not from
the same vendor.  Performance  increase ?  Not sure about that.  I've had the
chip in there for some  three years now and no ill effects.  My gas mileage is
around 18 mpg.   Not much else to say.
